I am so less than you are! I want to decrease more, so that you will increase more... I want my life to be spent making more of you, much of you, everyday. May it be so...
God I know that I, unless in your graciousness allow me not to..., must suffer the consequences of my past sins... not that I am not pure before you and your work on the Cross is in vain!!!! I claim the Blood of Christ! My gift, my salvation, my love!!!
But that choices produce circumstances... circumstances may lead to trials. Have you not called me to walk wisely? You have! Give me the wisdom to do so now so that I may not suffer ahead! And in the middle of my trials, whether they be ordained by your sovereignty or they be a result of my unwise choices... you have called me to rejoice... and I rejoice!!!
Because I know you love me. I know you are making me complete... mature. I know you have something in mind for me... and I know that it is good! I don't deserve it.... but you have promised it!
I trust you Lord... I accept my life... whatever life you give. May I be pleasing to you as you work all things together... teach me to love... In your precious, glorious, gracious name I pray, Amen.
